EXPLOSION OF NAPTHA.
A Schooner Set on Fire and Five Men
 KT1EeA


 BOSTON, Sept. 7.-About ten o'clock this morning a schooner loaded with naptha was lying near the wharf opposite John Cunning hams great oil storehouse, near the Chelsea end of the Chelsea bridge. Four men were | on the deck and one was below. Suddenly there was puff of black smoke and tre- 1 mendous explosion followed. A man on the bridge saw the dtek of the vessel rise into the air. In the midst of flame and smoke were the bodies of the four men, They were hurled high above the schooner and then fell b .ck into the flames that filled the boat. The fifth man jumped overheard and was drowned. The flames quickly spread to Cunningham's storehouse, which was soon destroyed. Meanwhile the burning hulk drifted around against the drawbridge and burned away the draw. This shut off the Boston fire department and prevented their getting to the Chelsea side.
 The storehouse belonged to John H. Gun ningham. It was 15O feet long by 50 feet wide and two stories high, and was filled with oil. The names of the men have not yet been ascertained.
 The captain and mate were very badly burned about the face and breast and sent to the hospital Four longshoremen were more or less burned and were forced to flee for their lives. Regarding the cause of the ex- plosion an employe, working in the storehouse at the time, says: 'The hatch way had just been opened by Henry O'Don- nell and one barrel of naphtha was being hoisted high in the air when, from some cause, the grab hook broke and the barrel crashed down the opening. Before I could look about I heard tremendous explosion and the next thing I saw was the entire stern of the vessel blown into the air I am sure there were four men ou board at the time. The man at the hatchway, O'Don- nell, I saw hurled into mid air. Just then I was hit by burning ember and ran for dear life" The loss on building and wharf, owned by the Cunningham heirs, will ag- gregate $14, 900. In the building was $8,000 worth of crude petroleum, and this was en- tirely consumed. The vessels cargo, con- sisting of 1000 barrels of naphtha and 100 tanks, was destroyed, involving loss of $15, 900. The vessel was worth $5,0O0 and is a total loes. This makes the aggregate loss $42, 900. The buildings were insured for $10,000.
